No.17 Cosmetic essay by Dr. Lee Jin soo- Face zero bezel

Image
Perhaps the most popular product used by modern people is a mobile phone. A new cell phone is coming out one day different. If you have any interest in a cell phone, you might have heard the term "zero bezel." The border around the screen of a mobile phone is called a bezel, and the thinner the screen, the greater the immersion of the screen. The bezel is called the out-of-screen border on TVs and monitors as well as mobile phones, and the bezel is getting thinner like in mobile phones. The development history of a cell phone can be seen as the thinning of this bezel. Today's cell phones often use the term "zero bezel" because they have few bezels. In fact, the bezel is very thin, so it's not really a zero-bezel, but really, the bezel is much thinner. In face type, the higher the percentage of eye and nose in the face is considered as the more beautiful the face is. This is why the purpose of most eye surgery and nose surgery is to make them bigger ...

Faceline’s double eyelids surgery. What is the right double eyelid for me?

Image
Today's topic is double eyelid. Some people want double eyelids that are thin like inner eyelids, and some people want big and opened eyes, so they ask for thick eyelids. In fact, if you're here to talk about double eyelid surgery, the most frequently heard demands are, "Please make me natural double eyelids." And "Please make me double eyelids that fit my eyes." What is a double eyelid line that fits you? If you want double eyelid surgery, you might have thought about this. First of all, let's learn about each line along with the method of double eyelid surgery. Asian people generally have tendons in their skin, so even if they close and open their eyes, they don't have double eyelids that fold. However, Westerners often have double eyelids because the tendons of the eyelids are even tangled to the surface of the eyelids. When they open their eyes, they often have double eyelids because their skin is pulled up together. On the con...

Deviated nose surgery. It's necessary to improve the function of your nose.

Image
Hi. This is FACELINE clinic korea. Even pretty and handsome celebrities rarely have the perfect symmetrical faces. In the meantime, I heard that it is perfectly symmetrical with Kim Tae-hee or Kim Yu-na.  Almost everyone has asymmetrical face. But not all of them think they're going to improve asymmetry. Unless they have a functional problem which is not visible with naked eyes. If it's asymmetrical enough to feel "I have a crooked face" or "I have a crooked nose," especially if you're having trouble with crooked nose, it's better to visit a plastic surgeon that is famous for nose surgery and get accurate diagnosis and improve through nose formation. If your nose is a throbbing nose, there is a high possibility that the nasal septum inside your nose is bent, in addition to the apparent problem. The nasal septum inside the nose is the wall that divides the nose in half. If the wall is tilted to one side or bent in an S shape, it...

No.16 Cosmetic essay by Dr. Lee Jin soo- A stigma of plastic surgery 'face factory'

Image
 You've probably seen "Gangnam Beauty" on the Internet once. It's a satire about the phenomenon that plastic surgery is making you look unorthodox. It was a painting that made me feel responsible for being a plastic surgeon.   The basic principle of beauty is harmony and balance. The reason why the face is not beautiful is because of this harmony and balance. A good plastic surgery is to find out exactly what's not in this harmony and balance in your original face and fix it in a harmonious and balanced way. In the same vein, I emphasized "natural beauty" in my previous article, and said that the obvious and awkward look was never a beautiful one.  Like the cartoon, there are several reasons why all of them become similar faces after plastic surgery. First of all, people are going to have to put on a lot of plastic surgery on their face. Let's take rhinoplasty as an example. The Korean head itself is basically broad from side ...

Revision of cheekbone reduction is not an easy choice.

Image
These days, more and more people are visiting because of revisions. I think there are many cases where people who decided to undergo surgery again due to dissatisfaction or side effects. Revision is usually done after six months of surgery. Today we are going to talk about revision of cheekbone reduction Usually, it is performed because of asymmetry, inefficiency after surgery, and non-conformity of the cheekbone. As the bone is cut and fixed again, it can be a difficult surgery. That's why doctors need to have a lot of experience in bone surgery. In the case of revision of cheekbone reduction, the bone is already understated, so it's difficult to cut it again. And there's not enough room to hold it back, so it's a challenge. The surgery does not only effect the facial bones, but also the cartilage, the nerves, the muscles, the skin tissue which are already deformed in the anatomical structure, causing difficulties.    If you want to do this all at...

No.15 Cosmetic essay by Dr. Lee Jin soo- Reasons for increasing time of surgeries

Image
There are people who advertise that they do double jaw surgery and ASO(protruding mouth surgery) quickly. If you have little experience with any surgery, it takes time to perform the surgery because you are hesitant or not proficient. So it's true that if you're familiar with the surgery with repeated surgeries, you'll be able to shorten the operation time. People who advertise that surgery is fast probably want to emphasize to this point. But this reduction in surgery time happens when you don't do surgeries that much. If you continue to perform the same surgery for more than a few years or decades, the operation time will not continue to decrease. In my case, for example, when I was doing a double jaw surgery, my surgery time steadily reduced until the cumulative number of surgeries was about 50. In the long run, the operation time was reduced until about six months. And the time it took to do a double jaw surgery (from the beginning of the incision to the...

No.14 Cosmetic essay by Dr. Lee Jin soo- Surgery which works like a charm-Facial bone surgery

Image
There are two wishes for plastic surgery that the patients has. One is that they want to have a big effect on surgery, and the other is that I don't want anyone to know that they've had surgery. The most common plastic surgery, double eyelid surgery or rhinoplasty are hard to be hidden. It's very visible, and the difference is noticeable. Because these surgeries are most common, I get the most cases of them. You can often see self-proclaimed professionals who claim that they are really good at noticing the differences. But my favorite field of facial contouring and double jaw surgery is different. Facial contouring and two jaw surgery are typical facial bone surgery. Facial surgery is a surgery that changes the contour of the face, and it typically includes cheekbone surgery, square jaw surgery, and tip of chin surgery. A double jaw surgery is a procedure that changes the position of the upper and lower jaw bones and it’s used to correct the malocclusion or to ...
